Kidney disease.
by amiandphoebe Tue Jan 21 2014, 21:04
Hey all.
So follow up on phoebes little episodes of being awake all night long have led me to go to the vets again.
Blood test has come back with kidney diease
I'm absolutely gutted, but levels are over slightly so hopefully caught it in the nick of time to treat it. Obviously it is irriversable but fingers crossed we will prolong any further damage.
She's on antibiotics and steroids x2 daily. See how she is in a month and if treatment is working
Has any of your dogs had kidney diease!?
Please pray for our pup! Xx
